Search JSTOR through this direct link (use your SRJC Student ID and PIN to gain access) to find one (1) scholarly journal article (NOT a review) that contains information about the focus of your World Music Ethnography that you will use in your paper. The article you choose should be more than five (5) pages, be mostly text and few pictures, and have footnotes, a reference list or both. DO NOT choose an article in the Music Educators Journal or General Music Today. Here's How to Search JSTOR in more detail. Here are some scholarly journals that are good sources of articles on world music: African Music American Music Asian Music Black Music Research Journal The Black Perspective in Music Ethnomusicology Latin American Music Review Popular Music Yearbook for Traditional Music Read the article and, in your words, write an "indicative annotation" (defines the scope of the source, lists the significant topics included, and tells what the source is about) in "telegraphic style" (phrases and non-sentences to get the information out quickly and concisely). DO NOT just copy the abstract of the article and DO NOT write a summary. LESS IS MORE so your annotation should be 50 words or fewer and incomplete sentences are best.
